Sepak takraw is a fast, exciting

sport It’s a combination of

volleyball, football and gymnastics It’s popular in

Southeast Asia, and it’s Malaysia’s national sport

The name comes from two languages Sepak means

‘kick’ in Malay and takraw means ‘ball’ in Thai

People in Europe, Canada and the USA are starting

to play it too

The rules of sepak takraw are simple Each team has

three people on the court They can use any part of

their body, except their hands, to hit the ball over the

net They win a point if the other team can’t hit it

back to them The sport’s most famous competition is

the King’s Cup World Championship It’s on every year

in Thailand, in August or September

Sepak takraw is amazing to watch In this photo, the

player is flying through the air He is trying to kick

the ball over the net There’s more information and

videos about it online

Read the description again and decide if the sentences

are true or false

1 Sepak takraw is similar to volleyball true

2 Sepak takraw is never played in Europe

3 Teams of three play on a court

4 It’s difficult to understand the rules of sepak takraw

5 Players can use their heads to hit the ball over the net

6 The King’s Cup is in a different country every year

7 Sepak takraw is often boring to watch

8 You can see people playing the sport on the internet

them in English?

bossaball is anew and unusual sport its a mixture of beach volleyball football and gymnastics the courts got a net across the middle and a trampoline on each side

Hi! We often think our way of doing things is the only way But people do things differently all over the world Eating together is important in every culture, but what we eat and what we do at mealtimes depend on tradition For example, in Italy we say ‘Buon Appetito’ before we eat, but my friends in the UK don’t usually say anything! It’s really strange for me

What people eat

People eat a wide variety of food and some of it can seem strange to us Japanese people eat a lot of raw fish and seaweed Millions of people around the world eat insects and grubs — they are a source of protein And in Mexico, they eat them as snacks In some countries, certain food isn't allowed For example, people don’t eat pork in Saudi Arabia and Lebanon, and millions of Indians don’t eat meat at all

How people eat

In the Middle East and India, many people eat with their hands, but it’s very rude to use your left hand

In China and Japan, people eat with a pair of chopsticks — it’s rude (and difficult!) to just use one Usually, people don’t make much noise when they eat But you can ‘slurp’ when you eat noodles in Japan It means you like them! In Germany, break up your potatoes with your fork, don’t cut them This shows that they're tender

How people serve food

In Thailand and China, don’t put too much on your plate because it looks greedy to take a lot And at the end

of your meal, leave a bit of food on your plate This shows that you aren't hungry any more But in France

and Denmark, it isn’t polite to leave food at the end of the meal because it looks like you didn’t enjoy it.

BOLT FROM THE BL

orn on 21* August, 1986, in a small town in

Jamaica, Usain Bolt is a very famous and

successful athlete His sport is sprinting and

he’s the first person ever to win gold medals in

the 100m, 200m and 4x100m relay at the same

Olympic games He has several nicknames,

including Lightning Bolt and Bolt from the blue

At 1.95 metres, Usain Bolt is very tall for a

sprinter He’s also quite heavy, weighing about 94

kilos Perhaps because of this, he doesn’t usually

start races fast, but with his very long legs, he

can soon catch up with the other sprinters and

then speed past them

Usain usually trains 8 times a week — 5 times

on the track and 3 times in the gym He spends

about 2% hours on each training session

He needs to eat a lot of food and usually has

six meals a day For breakfast he often has

dumplings made of flour, butter and milk, yams

and cooked green bananas For lunch he has

fish with brown bread, and for dinner brown rice

with chicken, pork or beef Occasionally he has junk food as a treat — his favourite is chicken nuggets

Usain Bolt is well known for his cool, relaxed personality He loves making jokes and having fun

In his free time he plays basketball or football with his friends, and he’s a big fan of Manchester United football club To relax he plays on his PlayStation

or watches TV He loves music too, but he never listens to it just before a race, as his coach doesn’t think it’s a good idea

Read the article and decide if the sentences are true,

false or not mentioned

3 Usain is the same size as most sprinters
